We’re pleased to announce an expansion at our Operation Centre in Peterlee, County Durham.
With land adjacent to our existing Peterlee site having become available following the closure of the previous occupant’s business, we have taken the opportunity to expand in response to increasing customer demand in this area.
“The need to increase our presence in the northeast in response to customer demand has coincided perfectly with this opportunity for expansion at our Peterlee site.” – Jane Pocock, CEO of Copart UK & Ireland
Construction is now going ahead to increase Peterlee to a 42-acre site, significantly boosting vehicle storage capacity for Copart’s customers operating in the northeast of England.
The expansion will enable us to provide dedicated handling zones for vehicles that require our specialist processes, including EVs, HEVs, and flood and fire damaged vehicles. Dedicated bio-diversity space is also being ringfenced as part of the expansion works.
